Logan County, Administrative county in central North Dakota, United States
Logan County is an administrative county in central North Dakota covering rolling terrain and farmland. The landscape features numerous small lakes scattered throughout, with Napoleon serving as the seat of county government.
The county was established in 1873 by the Dakota Territory legislature as a newly organized administrative unit. It was named after John Alexander Logan, a Civil War general who later served as a United States Senator from Illinois.
The county maintains strong agricultural traditions with numerous family farms that contribute to North Dakota's grain and livestock production.
Administrative services and local facilities are centered in Napoleon, the county seat. The area includes five incorporated municipalities and is best explored by car due to the rural nature of the region.
The county had a peak population of about 8,000 residents in 1930, which was dramatically higher than its present-day numbers. This significant decline reflects broader economic shifts in rural agriculture across the Great Plains.
